Rodney Dangerfield Misreading the Situation
“With girls, I don’t think right. I had a date with one girl; she had mirrors all over her bedroom. She told me to come over and bring a bottle. I got Windex.”
Tiffany Haddish on Bullying
“This bitch Keyosha found out I was in the system. She didn’t want to let me play. Coming up to play tetherball, she was like, ‘Uh-uh, Tiffany. Only people with mamas and daddies can play.’ Bitch, we don’t even know if that’s your real daddy. How you gonna do me? Just ’cause you 15 and in the sixth grade don’t mean you get to run the playground, Keyosha! She wouldn’t let me play, though. Three weeks of her bullying me, three weeks of her telling me I can’t play, three weeks of her punkin’ me, and I couldn’t take it no more. I fuckin’ lost it. I needed to play tetherball…”
Todd Glass on Designated Driving
“I don’t think designated drivers are that good of an idea. What does the person, instead of drinking liquor, end up drinking all night? Coca-Cola and coffee loaded with caffeine. Then they get pulled over by the police, (shakes uncontrollably) ‘Ooooh, I’mmmm the designnnateddddd drrrrriverrrr!’”

“‘We’re gonna put up a tent on the outskirts of town, and we’re gonna fill it with depressed animals walking slowly. Did I say walking? I meant trudging. Trudging counterclockwise in an oval. And while they do it, we’re going to play creepy Calliope music over them — their spirits broken, no connection to the wild.’”
Aziz Ansari on Marrying Box Turtles
“This is my favorite argument against gay marriage. It’s from Senator John Cornyn of Texas. He goes, ‘Now, if your neighbor marries a box turtle, that doesn’t affect your everyday life. But that doesn’t mean it’s right.’ It’s pretty safe to assume that, at one point or another, Senator John Cornyn has thought about making love to a box turtle. That’s not the first animal you jump to when you’re writing that analogy.”
